“I don’t want to risk Wimbledon next week” – Nick Kyrgios

A large part of Nick Kyrgios’ decision to withdraw from the Mallorca Open has been due to the fact that the Australian doesn’t want to risk Wimbledon starting in a few days’ time.

About his withdrawal, Kyrgios said:

“I woke up with a pain in my abs. I went to see the tournament doctor right away and he advised that I don’t play tonight. I really value the Mallorca Championships but I will follow his advice as I don’t want to risk Wimbledon next week.”

Fans of Kyrgios will be waiting with their fingers crossed to see the man dubbed as a potential favourite (at Wimbledon), in action soon.
